______________________________ Forward Header __________________________________ Subject: i want to vote for city bonds but have questions Author: < i would love to vote for the $750,000,000 or roughly 1 billion dollars in bonds tohelp improve the city of phoenix if its not going to cost me one cent more, and it wont increase my taxes by one cent, and if it wont keep any old taxes that are due to be repealed, and it wont cost me any money money in other forms.
from the ads i have seen promoting the bonds that what im told. if i vote yes these bonds wont raise my taxes one cent. i suspect that you as a elected phoenix government official are one of the prometers of these bonds.
to be honest this bond issue sounds like one of those things that are too good to be true. with backers of the bonds saying trust me the bonds are free they wont cost you one cent sounds like a lie thats not true.
i will gladly vote for the bonds this tueday if you can verify that it wont cost me one cent more in raised taxes, and wont stop the repeal of any tax cuts. and it wont cost me one cent more if i vote for the bonds.
please explain.
thanks
mike ross
